Participants hunt down sets of bagpipes, shoot, stab, harpoon, spear or
otherwise puncture them, then have them stuffed and mounted as
trophies (during which process they are rendeded relatively harmless
by excision of the reed).
The choice of weapon is left to the discretion of the hunter,
on the
condition that civilian casualties are kept to an acceptable minimum,
and excessive persistent radioactive fallout is avoided.
It woud be considered "good form" to concurrently dispose of the
bagpiper by a humane and painless process, i.e. crushing by a steam
road-roller, crucifixion*, or immolation in a Wicker Man. Anything,
really, that prevents re-offending.
There would be a closed season, which would be 25 December. 0300
to 0301.
*Completely painless if the hunter has moderate skill with a hammer
and nails; otherwise, the wearing of stout gloves is recommended.

Is this anything like haggis hunting? |
|

I went haggis hunting once, the old hunting permit's around here somewhere if you'd like to see it (for some reason it's written in crayon) but we couldn't find one, they're getting quite rare, overhunting or something (or was that undercooking?). |
|
|
We finally had to settle for a Cumberland sausage instead (you're average Cumberland can be quite fast you know, almost escaped down a rabbit hole). |

You're deaf, aren't you, [pash] ? |

Technically you COULD hunt sharks with bagpipes. You'd need to ruggedize the hardware and supply compressed air, but the sharks would leave you alone. |

Dolphins might be amused - whales I don't know... |

really? I was under the opinion that tartan was
indestructible and that it was not used for tank
armor/re-entry shielding only for taste
considerations. |
